[QUOTE="Anonymous Coward, post: 76407"] If your car breaks down on the way in, or your child has a fever and you have to stay home because the day care will not allow her in, these are what are considered call in days. I have no problem using sick days if you have any available, but to force you to use your personal holidays is pushing it. According to the contract they can't put you down for anything unless you agree. If you have excessive absences there is a way for them to rectify that situation. The problem comes with the optional days. Alot of us junior drivers don't have much time off so bid them as week long vacations to spend time with our family. This policy removes that option and you are left to tell your spouse, sorry honey, remember that day I stayed home to take our child to the doctor because she was sick? I can't spend the week with you now but have to work instead. Maybe next year will be perfect and we can spend time together then as a family. BTW we've been told this policy also will cost us regular vacation days if you don't have any optional holidays left. [/QUOTE]
